NCT ID NCT07447921
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This trial in a Tanzanian refugee camp will test two programs for caregivers: a stress management course (Self Help Plus) and a parenting class (ICC-P). Researchers want to see if these programs improve children's emotional and behavioral health. About 324 families with children aged 7-10 will be randomly assigned to usual care, the stress course alone, or the stress course plus parenting class. The study will measure outcomes after 12 months.
